Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Electric Light, and the Storing of Electrical Energy Observe that, although the great mass of nails has fallen down from the poles of the electro-magnet, there are one or two of the smaller nails still feebly clinging to it. To satisfy you that this is not a mere accident, I repeat the experiment again and again: each time, when the current is shut off, two or three small nails remain attached to the poles of the magnet. From this we may infer that, although the iron bar loses its magnetism, when the current ceases to pass, it does not lose: it altogether; some faint traces still remain. This is called residual magnetism: and I ask you now to take a note of it, because you will see, a little later on, what an important part this residual magnetism will be called upon to play, in the development of our machine.
